Ezekiel 24:6-24

6‘ThereforeH3651, thisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH136 GodH3068 saysH559: “WoeH188 to the 1bloodyH1818 cityH5892, To the potH5518 in whichH834 there is rustH2457 And whose rustH2457 has not goneH3318 outH3318 of it! TakeH3318 outH3318 of it pieceH5409 after pieceH5409, 2WithoutH3808 makingH5307 a choiceH1486.7For her bloodH1818 is in her midstH8432; She placedH7760 it on the bareH6706 rockH5553; She did not 3pourH8210 it on the groundH776 To coverH3680 it with dustH6083.8So that it may 4cause wrathH2534 to comeH5927 upH5927 to takeH5358 vengeanceH5359, I have putH5414 her bloodH1818 on the bareH6706 rockH5553, So that it will not be coveredH3680.” 9ThereforeH3651, thisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH136 GodH3068 saysH559: “5WoeH188 to the bloodyH1818 cityH5892! I alsoH1571 will makeH1431 the woodH4071 pileH4071 greatH1431.10HeapH7235 onH7235 the woodH6086, kindleH1814 the fireH784, 6CookH8552 the meatH1320 thoroughlyH8552 And mixH7543 inH7543 the spicesH4841, And let the bonesH6106 be burnedH2787 up.11Then 7setH5975 it emptyH7386 on its burningH1513 coalsH1513 SoH4616 thatH4616 it may beH2552 hotH2552 And its bronzeH5178 may 8glowH2787, And its 9filthinessH2932 may be meltedH5413 in it, Its rustH2457 eliminatedH8552.12She has 10weariedH3811 Me with workH8383, Yet her greatH7227 rustH2457 has not goneH3318 from her; Let her rustH2457 be in the fireH784!13In your filthinessH2932 is outrageousH2154 sinH2154. BecauseH3282 I would have cleansedH2891 you, Yet you areH2891 11not cleanH2891, You will not be cleansedH2891 from your filthinessH2932 againH5750 UntilH5704 I have 1213expendedH5117 My wrathH2534 on you. 14I, the LordH3068, have spokenH1696; it is 14comingH935 and I will actH6213. I will not overlookH6544, I will not 15pityH2347, and I will not beH5162 sorryH5162; 16according to your waysH1870 and according to your deedsH5949 17I will judgeH8199 you,” declaresH5002 the LordH136 GodH3068.’”

15And the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 cameH1961 to me, sayingH559, 16“SonH1121 of manH120, beholdH2009, I am about to takeH3947 from you 18whatH4261 isH4261 preciousH4261 to your eyesH5869 with a 19fatalH4046 blowH4046; but you shall not 20mournH5594 and you shall not weepH1058, and your 21tearsH1832 shall not comeH935. 17GroanH602 silentlyH1826; doH6213 22noH3808 mourningH60 for the deadH4191. BindH2280 on your turbanH6287 and putH7760 your sandalsH5275 on your feetH7272, and do not 23coverH5844 your mustacheH8222, and 24do not eatH398 the 25breadH3899 of other peopleH376.” 18So I spokeH1696 to the peopleH5971 in the morningH1242, and in the eveningH6153 my wifeH802 diedH4191. And in the morningH1242 I didH6213 as I was commandedH6680. 19And the peopleH5971 saidH559 to me, “Will you not tellH5046 us whatH4100 theseH428 thingsH428 mean for us, that you are doingH6213?” 20Then I saidH559 to them, “The wordH1697 of the LordH3068 cameH1961 to me, sayingH559, 21‘SpeakH559 to the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, “ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH136 GodH3068 saysH559: ‘BeholdH2009, I am about to profaneH2490 My sanctuaryH4720, the prideH1347 of your powerH5797, 26that whichH4261 isH4261 preciousH4261 in your eyesH5869 and the longingH4263 of your soulH5315; and your 27sonsH1121 and your daughtersH1323 whomH834 you have leftH5800 behindH5800 will fallH5307 by the swordH2719. 22And you will doH6213 justH3512 asH3512 I have doneH6213; you will not 28coverH5844 your mustacheH8222, and you will not eatH398 the 29breadH3899 of other peopleH376. 23Your turbansH6287 will be on your headsH7218, and your sandalsH5275 on your feetH7272. You 30will not mournH5594 and you will not weepH1058; but 31you will rotH4743 awayH4743 in your guiltyH5771 deedsH5771, and you will groanH5098 32to oneH376 anotherH251. 24So EzekielH3168 will be a 33signH4159 to you; according to allH3605 that he has doneH6213, you will doH6213. When it comesH935, then you will knowH3045 that I am the LordH136 GodH3068.’”
